Vavenby? Not sure exactly where the station sits, but my friend's parents own the ranch, and his aunt is the operator, so I could ask...

According to its data, Midway seems to be a good one, but I can't find it in Google.

Whistler Roundhouse is a unique spot because it's at over 1800m on a snowy mountainside. This is the highest elevation EC station in the province I do believe. It looks like they have to hoist up the station to keep it above ground...
